Franklin County creates permit for temporary power poles

 People who want to place a temporary power pole on an undeveloped piece of land will now have to get a county permit to do that.

The Franklin County Commission last week gave the county planning office approval to begin issuing permits for temporary power poles.

Amy Hamm-Kelly said the county has seen an inundation of power poles on vacant lots and the county has had to issue a number of violations for those.

By requiring people to get a 50 dollar county permit, the county will be better able to control where those power poles are going and to inspect the poles to make sure they were properly installed.

She said the permit will also cut down on the number of people installing the poles for RV use on undeveloped land.


The temporary power pole permit will be a supplemental permit like electrical, plumbing, HVAC and roofing.
